What we collect
- Usage data: basic, aggregated metrics (e.g., page views, approximate region, device/browser type) to improve performance and UX.
- Server logs: standard web logs (IP address, user-agent, timestamps) used for security and reliability.
- Messages you send: if you contact us via the contact page, we receive what you submit (e.g., name, email, message).
What we do not collect by default
- No accounts or passwords are required to use the calculator.

How we use information

- Secure the service, prevent abuse, and troubleshoot issues.
- Respond to messages you send via the contact form.
Legal bases (EEA/UK)
- Legitimate interests for basic analytics, security, and service improvement.
- Consent where required (e.g., optional cookies or newsletter, if introduced).
Retention
Contact messages are retained as long as needed to respond and maintain records. Logs/analytics are kept for a limited period consistent with security and operations.
Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with trusted service providers that help us run the site (e.g., hosting, security/CDN, analytics), bound by confidentiality and data-protection obligations. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect rights, safety, or integrity of the service.
Your choices & rights
- You can use the calculator without creating an account.
- If you’re in the EEA/UK, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data. To exercise rights, contact us via the contact page.
- California residents may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA. You can reach out to make a request.
Cookies & analytics
If we use analytics, we prefer privacy-respecting tools and minimal data. If any non-essential cookies are introduced, we will provide notice/controls (e.g., a banner) where required by law.
Data security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No internet service is 100% secure, but we work to keep risk low.
Children
This site is not directed to children under 13 (or the age required by local law). If you believe a child provided personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. If changes are material, we’ll take reasonable steps to notify you (e.g., a site banner).
